The Spicy Scholar

In her previous life, Xie Wenjing was Yangzhou’s most notorious shrew! After her death, she became Yangzhou’s most notorious wanton, dragging the top scholar of Yangzhou down with her and ruining his reputation too! In her previous life, Xie Wenjing had single-handedly supported Yangzhou’s two great families: her own and her husband’s. After she died, she didn’t even have a place to be buried. Now reborn, if her own family was going to fall apart, let it! And her husband’s family? She’d be waiting for the day they fell too! Her grandmother was famed for her virtue, so Xie Wenjing would make her reveal her vicious fangs and let the world see what a “kind and generous” grandmother she really was: nothing but a wolf in human clothing! Her delicate, obedient cousin had learned well from their grandmother, winning over the scumbag fiancé at a young age. This time, Xie Wenjing would graciously hand the scumbag over to her. No need to thank her! They were cousins, after all, and Xie Wenjing was happy to give her the scumbag! In this life, Xie Wenjing set herself these goals: Save her father from her evil grandmother! Drive out the concubine her grandmother had placed by her father’s side! Keep her younger brother, whom her grandmother had led astray, in line! Change the tragic fate of her cousin, who died young! Stop her cousin from marrying the mentally ill son of Yangzhou’s assistant prefect! And make sure that young man next door was hers from the start. In their previous life, they’d promised to find each other again in this one! Check out and support my new 2021 novel, The Ruthless Daughter-in-Law!
